It hasn’t disappointed me at all.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Chu He’s gaze swept across the sky, a tiny black shadow quietly appeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like a forgotten speck of dust in the night sky, it tore through the air at an astonishing speed, gradually changing from a blur into something clear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The small black dot rapidly expanded until it transformed into an extremely emaciated, humanoid Evil Spirit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its form was so bizarre it resembled a dead tree gnawed on by hungry ghosts—a shocking sight to behold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The height of this Evil Spirit was extraordinary.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like a demon from ancient legends, it stood a full two to three meters tall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its arms were abnormally long, nearly reaching its knees. They swayed in the wind like two dead branches, yet contained a heart-stopping power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its face was even more terrifying, with a large mouth split open to its ears.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A wet tongue, glistening with a foul sheen, thrashed about wildly inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Each swing was accompanied by splattering slime. Wherever the slime touched, the grass and trees instantly lost their vitality.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A white mist of corrosion steamed up, leaving behind patches of withered death.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’This ferocious aura is horrifying!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Asura thought in alarm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His gaze locked onto the rapidly approaching Evil Spirit, and a sense of foreboding welled up inside him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He subconsciously glanced at the photograph in his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The once-still image now seemed to have come to life. Within its empty eye sockets, some kind of power was stirring.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A cold, sinister gaze pierced through the confines of the paper.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It stared straight at Asura, filled with provocation and threat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So that’s how it is...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Asura muttered to himself, his voice laced with disbelief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a sudden wave of his hand,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>he threw the Curse-bearing photograph far away, as if doing so could shake off the terror that clung to him like a shadow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But even so, the ferocious aura from the Evil Spirit still followed him, leaving him nowhere to hide.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is this the true meaning of a Curse? As long as it has seen you, there’s no escaping death...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Asura said with a dawning realization.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The surrounding air seemed to grow heavier, every inch of space filled with oppression and fear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No wonder you didn’t want me to look at this photo. You already knew the specifics of the Mysterious Power on it, so why didn’t you warn me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Katrina asked, looking at Amir with a strange expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"By the time I figured it out, Asura had already finished looking at the photo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When this photo was first thrown over, the outer white packaging shouldn’t have been torn open. Chu He must have used that to avoid being affected himself.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Amir said flatly, \"I never expected that Blue Star’s strongest expert wasn’t as arrogant and conceited as we’d imagined.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a loud BANG,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Asura’s figure was swept up in an invisible storm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The bizarre Evil Spirit’s charge was like a black cannonball fired from the depths of Hell. It struck him with destructive force, sending him flying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The air tore apart in that instant, letting out a sharp shriek.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Asura’s feet carved two shocking gouges into the ground, like wounds torn into the earth by a great force.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They snaked hundreds of meters into the distance before disappearing deep into the plains, a testament to the shocking power of the confrontation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rage erupted like a volcano in Asura’s chest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had never imagined he would be so disgracefully provoked by a low-level Evil Spirit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This Evil Spirit had no reason, no emotion, and acted purely on instinct.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet it dared to offend him, the great Asura. It was simply courting death!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"ARGHHH—\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Following a deep roar,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>six thick arms suddenly grew from Asura’s body, each one as hard as ancient wood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were covered in Runes that resembled ghostly faces.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These Runes seemed to be alive, squirming under the flesh and flickering with a ghastly green light, releasing a heart-stopping, malevolent aura.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They twisted and contorted as if they were individual, imprisoned demons,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>trying to break their bonds and merge with the outside world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, Asura’s body underwent an astonishing transformation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His terrifying three-headed, six-armed form manifested.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Three bluish-black faces were shrouded in a faint, dark cloud, their eyes glinting with coldness and resolve.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His figure rapidly swelled, muscles knotting as an indescribable power surged within him, pushing him to the peak of his strength.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In just a few seconds, he had transformed into a six-to-seven-meter-tall giant, standing between heaven and earth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Compared to him, the seemingly massive Shy One Evil Spirit now looked as small as an ant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You dare to offend me? You will pay a painful price!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Asura’s voice was like thunder, making the very air around him tremble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He violently raised a palm as black as night, wisps of Divine Power coiling around it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a power that transcended the mortal world, enough to make any living creature tremble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As his palm fell, the air seemed to be compressed to its limit,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>then it suddenly exploded, forming a visible shockwave that swept out in all directions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Shy One Evil Spirit was completely powerless against this force. It was slammed directly into the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust and rubble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under Asura’s giant palm, its form seemed so fragile that it could dissipate into nothingness at any moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, the entire space was filled with an aura of terror and strangeness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Asura’s majesty and power were on full display, making all living beings present tremble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu He was all too familiar with this fluctuation of Divine Power. A faint warmth began to spread in his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under the powerful enhancement of the Divine Power,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Asura’s slap carried overwhelming might, viciously slamming the Evil Spirit codenamed Shy One into the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The force instantly turned the Shy One’s body into a gruesome mess, like a pile of sludge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A smug smile appeared on Asura’s face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This so-called number one expert of Blue Star is a real disappointment,\" he said. \"I thought he had prepared some incredible welcoming gift for me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And here I went and activated my peak state right away, just so I wouldn’t end up like that pathetic fellow DeHart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To think it was nothing more than this.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Something’s wrong. Be careful.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Amir said, directly interrupting the gloating Asura.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His powerful Perception Power had already detected a Mysterious Power continuously spreading out from the pile of sludge on the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In fact, after a moment of stillness, this Mysterious Power,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>was actually reigniting rapidly in an unbelievable way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just a few seconds later,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>the slender Evil Spirit slowly climbed up from the ground again, its entire body showing no difference from its previous state at its peak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was as if the thing Asura had slapped into meat paste wasn’t this Evil Spirit at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It actually revived? And it revived after an attack enhanced by my Divine Power.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Asura said, full of surprise, and then launched another attack on the Evil Spirit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, Asura’s killing blow was even swifter; he sliced the Evil Spirit’s head off cleanly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, it wasn’t long before the Evil Spirit staggered back to its feet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, Asura’s brows furrowed tightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright, it looks like you’ll need to spend some time dealing with this thing. But don’t worry, I’ll come help you as soon as I’ve taken care of Chu He.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Amir knew Asura’s personality well, so he spoke to calm Asura’s emotions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Thank you to the boss, YuMapki, for the generous donation of 1766 Book Coins!
